Kennedy Meadows Transfer Applauded

The county had been in talks with the Stewardship Council for several years about taking ownership of the resort property from PG&E. In November, the Board voted unanimously to take over the deed. At today’s meeting, the Board recognized all the agencies that help make the land transfer a reality.

Kennedy Meadows Resort Manager Matt Bloom told Supervisors, “I’m excited to work with the county. I think it will be a good relationship. The Stewardship council has been good to work with. We are happy it’s moving forward and look forward to working with everybody.”

There is still a lot of work to be done. Deputy County Administrator Daniel Richardson told the Supervisors starting this summer, several studies will begin including an enhanced recreational use plan and a cultural resource study. Those studies could take a year to two years to complete.
